The EU recognises that raising industrial competitiveness is essential if Europe is to undergo an industrial transformation ensuring that the economic recovery strengthens, that innovation and new technologies are developed, that we embrace resource efficiency and address other technological, environmental and societal challenges.
A crucial part of industrial competitiveness is the adoption and use of best practices. Whilst originally LEAN activities focused on manufacturing areas, increasingly leading companies are using best practice approaches across all areas of their operations.
On 22 May 2015, the EU-Japan Centre and Enterprise Ireland will organise a LEAN – Driving Competitiveness conference in Dublin, showcasing best practice aproaches from leading companies in a broad range of sectors. The event is being supported by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation of Ireland.
We are currently confirming which companies will present their LEAN / best practice activities.
Registration is not yet open, however to be sent details of the event and a link to the online registration form once they are available, feel free to contact Simon Craig Gray: simon@eujapan.eu .
